The future of shipping is ammonia. It has, pretty much, all the attributes of fossil fuels but being NH4 it doesn't produce an earth warming byproduct.

now imagine a leak of it.

fuel oil.. you just fence it off and scoop up.

ammonia.. evacuate the port and city

Studies have been done comparing gasoline vs. ammonia and while there are differences overall the dangers and mitigations are about the same.

log log has been a thing for several decades.

Can you put Linux on a mac Mini?

Sure, but why? Asahi Linux is the furthest along to my knowledge.

You don't know until you try. Going to Jupiter is not like going to the corner store for milk. Let's call it the "Musk Approach".

Yes, but in the marine realm they are consistently called outboard motors and not outboard engines.

I recently had the experience of wiping windows of an Asus laptop I bought and the process was trickier than usual. It turns out that the 'USB Image Writer' that comes with linux and that you use to create a USB drive with the linux of your choice is no longer up to the task. The bios of the laptop would not allow the USB to boot up unless I created the USB with an entirely different software, in my case I used the balenaEtcher software (I believe other software will work too) to create the USB and only then would the USB boot up and allow me to wipe and reconfigure the partitions on the 'hard drive' (which in this case was an SSD).

It took me an extra couple of hours to get this to finally work. At this point I'm not sure if it's only the new Asus bios that are doing this unfriendly thing or if it's an industry trend.

A real pain in the ass in any case.

Try Ventoy, it's a game changer for bootable USBs.

And casinos apparently.

The battery can also be charged by regenerative braking, which also allows the brakes to last much longer.

I have a LG Smart TV that I use as a dumb TV that's driven by a Asus pn51 "palm of our hand" computer running Linux Mint. Finally a Logitech MX Ergo 'thumb ball bluetooth mouse' allows me to sit on the sofa across the living room and happily browse the internet, watch movies, youtube and almost anything else you can think off. (All the details here are just in case someone else would like to do something similar, this could be a starting point.)

Yes, that's for the legacy students (now pushing 50%) who can well afford it. The gifted students get a subsidy so they can afford to attend and everyone is happy, almost.
